Well, it's officially Pumpkin Spice season again, and our wallets are quaking at the prices in the you-know-who coffee chains for the much-loved PSL.

See nespresso.com
If you don't have a Nespresso machine and are craving the Pumpkin Spice Latte flavour at home, Califia Farms has also recently re-launched the Pumpkin Spice Cold Brew in stores. You will be able to get it for €3 (usually €3.89) across Dunnes Stores, Tesco and SuperValu throughout October, so keep an eye out!
